"A motley crew of 500 people have gathered beneath the surface of a swimming pool in Acton, west London, to set the record for the world's largest formal underwater dinner party.

Their aim, to get into Guinness World Records and raise thousands of pounds for six charities including Save the Children and The British Heart Foundation.

There was also the chance of a free, three-course gourmet lunch.

It was the three-course lunch with a difference. The smoked salmon and candied lemon certainly sounded appetising, as did the medley of crab with asparagus." SEE THE VIDEO HERE
